Andrew Takats Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 It seems to always default to one of my groups, yet I'd like to start people at a more restricted access group until they purchase something, at which point I can promote them. Any suggestions? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opentype Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 The default group is set in the conf_global.php in your root directory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Takats Posted February 12, 2017 Author Share Posted February 12, 2017 thanks @opentype I've done very few code-level changes to my site so far so I don't have a sense how difficult this is to change (or even possible to do with a cloud instance). i would be grateful for a pointer to a good place to start. thanks-andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management Charles Posted February 13, 2017 Management Share Posted February 13, 2017 When you open up conf_global.php in your root install directory you will see quite a few configuration options. One of them will be titled 'member_group' and will have a number next to it with the default being a '3' which is the Members group on install. To change this, first find the ID number of the group you want to use. Edit the group in the AdminCP: And then look in your browser's address bar where you will see an address ending in something like "&app=core&module=members&controller=groups&do=form&id=##" where the ## at the end is the group number. Replace this in conf_global.php and then all future registrations will be in that group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What @Charles explained is for self-hosted clients who can access their own files in the server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management Charles Posted February 13, 2017 Management Share Posted February 13, 2017 Just now, Joel R said: Since you're a Cloud client, you will need to submit a ticket and have them change it for you. What @Charles explained is for self-hosted clients who can access their own files in the server. Oh yes, sorry I missed that part. Thanks, Joel. @Andrew Takats for that case just submit a ticket and we will take care of it for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Woods Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 There is now a plugin for this: Certainly a lot better than editing files or opening support tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
